The unrivaled benchmark in carbon-fiber hard-shell harnesses, the Elite Carbon V8 continues to lead the way thanks to its data-based design and ergonomic shape for superior support and comfort. Built with the latest in material technology, including 12K molded carbon fiber, limestone-based neoprene, and Fusion closed-cell memory foam for maximum durability and performance. Equipped with Unity Ladder-Lock Straps so it's ready to integrate with our Unity Spreader Bar (goodbye sloppy webbing!), the Elite Carbon is constructed using top-shelf 12K carbon fiber, which ensures a durable, strong Armor Shell frame in a lightweight, high-performance package. When combined with our Fusion Memory Foam and proprietary Shell Skin technology with Lumbar Lock shaping, the Elite Carbon provides the ultimate in connection, feel and support.

Features
  • 2K CARBON ARMOR SHELL
    • Built with 12K carbon fiber, the Armor Shell of our Elite Carbon is light, strong, and ergonomically contoured—as well as our stiffest. The Armor Shell also allows the load to be distributed seamlessly from the spreader bar to the shell, preventing the harness from buckling or pinching.
  • LUMBAR LOCK DATA-DERIVED TECHNOLOGY
    • A scientifically supported data shape from more than 1000 custom molds, the Lumbar Lock conforms and cradles your lumbar, back and sides to lock the harness securely in place. This enhanced ergonomics ensure that you get the maximum support out of your harness—no more harness sliding side-to-side or riding up.
  • LOW-PROFILE OUTLINE SHAPING
    • Low-profile framework contributes to a perfect fit and maximum mobility while keeping the harness locked in place and eliminating pressure points.
  • HANDLE-PASS, FRONT-MOUNTED LEASH ATTACHMENTS
    • For freestyle riders, the Elite Carbon comes with a handle-pass-leash mount around the back (which is easy to remove for windsurfing). It also has two attachment points in the front for use when a short leash is utilized.
  • FUSION MEMORY FOAM
    • Super soft, ergonomic foam conforms to the shape of your torso for ultimate comfort and hold.
  • FULL NEOPRENE COMFORT WRAP
    • Minimal-seam construction of a full-neoprene wrap conforms to the body, creating a rash-free interface.
  • INTERNAL WAIST-BELT STRAP
    • An internal, single-closure waist-belt strap provides a secure fit and easy entry and adjustment. Includes easy access hook-knife pocket.
UNITY DIRECT CONNECTION

Comprised of two revolutionary pieces, the Unity Spreader Bar and the Unity Ladder-Lock Straps. The Unity Connection System is available exclusively on our Elite Carbon, Saber, and Lyte Direct harnesses. Gone is the ever-loosening harness webbing, replaced by unique Unity Ladder-Lock Straps that completely eliminate spreader bar rise. Gone are mid-session fluctuations in tightness and fit, replaced by the absolute locked-in feel of our ambidextrous Tension- Lock latch closure. Gone is the critical yet overlooked connection between your body, the harness, and kite or sail, replaced by a next-level spreader bar-system.

Fits like a glove

No more back pain, no more harness rash. This is my second elite series harness and I love the locked in feel. I am 6’0”, 175lb, I am using a size M with the 10” spreader. Once you adjust the harness to your waist, you will never need to adjust it again! With this adjustment system you no longer need to struggle to tighten down the webbing straps every session or every time it gets wet. You dial I. The fit and it will be perfect every time you strap in.

Locked in Feel

As someone who has had rib injuries in the past, I’m very particular when it comes to waist harnesses. This is by far the best harness I’ve worn, not only is it extremely comfortable but it gives a locked in feeling that protects me all session long. With the unity spreader bar system I know I’ll get the same fit every session without the harness riding up, game changer for getting more time on the water. Great harness for female riders.

Lots of support.

The carbon fiber shell on this thing adds tons of lumbar support for a snug feel. I’m a skinny rider and the spreader bar system allows you to set a fixed tightness and clamp it shut. This allows for maximum tightness while maintaining comfort to prevent the harness from riding. This is my favorite tightening system yet.

Industry standard

The elite carbon v8 harness is yet again another improvement of performance and comfort. No matter if you’re cruising on a twin tip or shredding waves, the lumbar lock keeps the harness perfectly in place. Paired with the ladder lock straps, the harness will never come loose or rotate on you.
Another great addition is the front leash attachments for extra short leashes so you never have to worry about finding what side your leash is on or dealing with a long leash swinging around.
Pair it with the ultra comfy unity spreader bar, and you have the best harness on the market!

Set it and Forget it

What really took the cake for me while using this harness was the fact that you can set it at a given tightness level and it will stay in place. This allowed me to find the perfect level and know it will be the same amount every time, allowing for longer and more comfortable sessions
